Description of change

Related to:

• #786
• #649

It is only a start for using gh pipelines. Add a linting pipeline for go with github actions.

Linting is currently broken in Travis CI:

INFO: Starting build lint
golint . ./cmd/... ./matchers/... ./outputs/... ./resource/... ./system/... ./util/... || true
/bin/sh: golint: command not found

Do not lint for latest-windows. There is a failure if nothing was changed:

only new issues on pull_request: C:\Users\RUNNER~1\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp-6348-vzusUQlR5XIf\pull.patch
  Running [D:\a\_temp\b2f1ab8f-0666-4c9f-8876-3984c905d141\golangci-lint-1.58.0-windows-amd64\golangci-lint run --out-format=github-actions --new-from-patch=C:\Users\RUNNER~1\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp-6348-vzusUQlR5XIf\pull.patch --new=false --new-from-rev=] in [D:\a\goss\goss] ...

  level=error msg="Timeout exceeded: try increasing it by passing --timeout option"

Only lint code changes (only-new-issues: true) and not all code. Reason is that there are some failures at the code:

@dklimpel I see lots of amazing PRs from you. It's greatly appreciated and is a considerable amount of work.

If you don't mind, can you open an issue and in there cover the order of PRs and the order they should be reviewed/merged in.

I have opend #911

Wow, the macOS build is extremely slow?

Also. I would think for linting Linux (or really any single OS) would be sufficient. I wouldn't think golangci-lint would give different results depending on OS.

I think Gihub has a few problems today. The job is finished and does not report the status back:

[aelsabbahy]

Ah, yeah the output was confusing me. Either way, I think we can lint on just Linux and save GH some compute time :smile:

Thanks for the quick response.

[dklimpel]

Same result on linux only :/

[aelsabbahy]

Awesome, thank you. Appreciate the permission lockdown =)
